Balmung re-opened

[Ayer2015]

Is this confirmed, or is char creation blocked due to world traffic? The latter was similar to how it was before in that you technically had a chance to create an alt after every maint if you were fast enough.

Probably world traffic. But when is Balmung not high traffic. My point is.... it should be closed to transfers and open to new characters imo.

SE makes $18 USD off transfers. They're not going to give that up till Aether is on fire again lol

So... apparently Balmung was only re-opened to character transfers, not new characters. Doesn't that just facilitate the original problem?

I made a new character on there this morning after maintenance ended. Although new characters on servers get restricted if there are too many logged in on a server.

The world traffic blocking character creation like it is inconjunction with the transfer fee is throttling the number of players joing Balmung which is good.

All it takes is one alt for people, the total number of accounts with access to Balmung is huge.

I'm just happy I got an alt there this morning to play with friends. Have to wait til friday to buy the pots for her tho. But she's there, living life like it's golden. - I need to find that song >.> -

Chara creation was locked by the time I got home from work I can transfer but that cash. I'll try again tomorrow as I'm home sick - the one good thing about being in an off timezone lmao. If not I'll probably transfer, better do that before they lock THAT too

It's probably mostly bots that took up most of the new character slots.

Got up this morning to make an alt for Balmung and couldn't create the character. Locked again or just busy due to how many ppl are playing on it?
